Oh yes, they make all the difference. The little things. A sunny moment, the neat piles of fabric, all the pretty buttons in their own jars, a clean working space when you start a day. Enough bobbins with thread ready, a favorite yogurt in a fridge for a snack and a clean t-shirt (ironed if the day is a really great one!).
Of course the little pretty things are very important too. Like those bits and pieces of pretty tweeds and ribbons sewn together for cute key rings. These make me happy and smile.
I have been cleaning my cupboards and drawers all weekend, and have found many pretty things I didn't remember having. Such as ribbons, buttons and some pearls, too. It's like Christmas, actually, opening the boxes and pouches and finding the treasury after an another.
I used to think that I will never be able to use my vintage buttons and trims, but I have started to think that if they can make someone else happy and smile, it's worth it. The little things, you know?
Happy Tuesday from sunny Finland!

Hi Mia!
I love these! The mix of the dark wool and the bright colors is so fun, and the owls are too sweet!
Hi Debbie!
So great to have you visiting me here! And I like that mix too, tweeds are not too colorful to start with but with pretty, bright wool... These just make people smile!
Happy new week!
Yours,
Mia
